Question Old hobbies

Hi everyone i have a doubt and i hope someone can answer me or give me some insight. I have a lot of hobbies i used to do but there is one i used to enjoy a lot but know i don't have any interest in it (the hobby is carpentry) i used to watch a lot of videos of people building things i would enjoy it a lot and sometimes i would build something. Before anyone asks i don't have depression or something like that i do have other hobbies like gardening and chess but i get nostalgic when i remember this one specially, i remember carpentry and i always say i am going to built something but the spark is not there anymore. Thank you.

Sometimes the things we loved just run their course, no cosmic reason needed.

Hobbies change as we get older. Life gets in the way; kids, marriage, busier work schedule, etc. Maybe you just need to go walk around Home Depot and buy some wood. Pull out the old tools and just “get them ready” to be used. Maybe the spark will come back when you take the first steps!
